1. breakfast is hashbrowns, omelet, and bacon or sausage. make your own waffles available on demand. oatmeal, bagels, bread, stuff like that also available. fresh fruit bar there as well.
Lunch changes on a daily basis. Always available are burgers, fries and wood-fire pizza. The main entree changes daily. varies anywhere from fish and chips, pasta, chicken strips and when I last went, stuffed bell peppers w/ wild rice. Appetizer changes on the daily as well (last time I was there it was mini quesadillas). Also has vegetarian options as well. There is also a salad bar.
Have yet to go to dinner, but they do steak among other things. Dessert also available.
Protip: if you get there and the filipino guy is the cook, he'll make you whatever you want (ie. 10 patty burger) but you have to finish it or he wont make you stuff again.
"MyPantry" allows people to cook their own food from a fridge that supplies ingredients. Always available.
Best features include unlimited fountain pop, ice cream and
unlimited chocolate milk.
2. seating is chairs at tables (not the comfiest but whatever.), but best seats are the high stools, with short table space that have the plugs. there's one TV in there with HDMI/VGA connection to do projects. Some sofas.
3. It's cafeteria style, and generally a social hub for those in rez and those looking to do a project/eat. So it's not as quiet as a library, but it's no more louder than the AQ. Pop in some headphones, get some food and do work.
The only kicker is you cant leave and reenter, nor can you take food out with you. Prices are 4.95/7.95/11.95 depending on when you enter. Don't go in there expecting high class, high quality food. you're in there for one thing: all the food you can gorge yourself with for cheap that tastes decent enough that it justifies the price.
